Fraxel Laser Treatment
Fraxel is an advanced fractional laser treatment that revitalizes your skin by targeting beneath the surface. It creates microscopic damage to boost collagen production, effectively smoothing out wrinkles and scars. Fraxel is beneficial for skin resurfacing, reducing fine lines and wrinkles, treating surface scarring, pigmentation, sun damage, and actinic keratosis, and is suitable for the face, neck, chest, shoulders, and back.
Fraxel Laser Treatment
How does it work?
The procedure involves passing the fractional laser over the face multiple times, penetrating the top skin layers to stimulate collagen and resurface the skin. Each session can last 15-45 minutes, with the entire process taking about 2 hours. Patients typically feel a ‘sunburn’ sensation post-treatment, and recovery may require a few days off. Most patients need 3-6 treatments for maximum results, with improvements visible in 1-3 weeks and collagen development continuing for 3-6 months after the last treatment.
